🎙 Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s answer to a media question about the outcomes of the parliamentary elections in #Serbia (October 26, 2026) ❓Question: What is your assessment of the results of the October 25 parliamentary elections in Serbia? 💬 Maria Zakharova: We have seen the preliminary voting results, according to which the opposition Student List is emerging victorious. Aleksandar Vučić, the leader of the ruling bloc, has made a statement following the vote. Russian representatives took part in election observation, both as members of multilateral missions, including the CIS Interparliamentary Assembly and other organisations, and on a bilateral basis. Their findings and assessments will be carefully reviewed. 🇷🇺🇷🇸 We have repeatedly emphasised that Serbia is a country that is close to us and is a traditionally friendly nation with which we maintain ramified political, economic, cultural, historical, and humanitarian ties. We trust that, following the formation of the state authorities based on the election results, Serbia’s leadership will preserve the positive momentum built up over the years and will continue to pursue a policy of developing mutually beneficial and equal cooperation with Russia. This fully serves the fundamental national interests of both countries.
